2013 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · LS63 MZZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend that suggests reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent MOT test on 29 July 2025 at 68,981 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for a non-functional nearside front dipped beam. This indicates that the owner is willing to rectify immediate safety defects to maintain compliance, though the recurring nature of lighting issues suggests oversight during routine inspections. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 68,981 miles represents low annual usage of approximately 5,300 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with 3,210 miles covered between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 3,480 miles leading up to the 2025 test. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can often lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system and lighting assembly during a physical inspection. The July 2024 test at 65,501 miles flagged thin front brake pads, and the July 2023 test noted a defective offside handbrake cable mount. You must verify that the handbrake remains firmly engaged and that the brake discs show no signs of excessive corrosion or thinning. Given the multiple failures related to headlamp alignment and operation, a thorough check of the electrical loom and bulb seating is necessary to ensure no underlying intermittent faults remain.
